Idea

In a context of synthetic differential geometry or differential cohesion, then given any space XX and a point x:*Xx \colon \ast \to X, then the formal disk in XX at xx is just the infinitesimally thickened point which is the formal neighbourhood of that point. If there is a concept of dimension for XX, then the dimension of that formal disk is the dimension of XX at that point.

Dually in terms of function algebras, in the typical models formal disks are the formal spectra of formal power series algebras. The formal spectra of the Laurent series algebras are instead the “punctured formal disks”, hence formal disks with their unique global point removed.

More concretely, if SS is any infinity-cohesive site of “differentiable spaces” (such as for instance complex analytic manifolds) and S synthdiffS_{synthdiff} is the corresponding site of infinitesimal thickenings (for instance complex analytic smooth loci of the form the product of a complex manifold with an infinitesimally thickened point), then we have relative cohesion of Sh (S synthdiff)Sh_\infty(S_{synthdiff}) over Sh (InfPoints)Sh_\infty(InfPoints) (see at synthetic differential ∞-groupoid) and for any space XX then the flat modality takes it to its union X\flat X of all formal disks around all global points of XX.
